4DSOUND

✨In collaboration with sound artists Robin Koek @visionsofvisions and Mint Park @scmint, we are hosting an ambitious and engaging workshop as part of the Aural Spaces 2024 educational programme. ‘Space as a Collective Sonic Instrument’ approaches listening and sonic composition through the lens of spatial sound. By taking a collective approach, participants will work as a group to gather sounds and create spatial experiments on a 4DSOUND system.

The workshop will address questions such as: How does our awareness of space affect our listening perspective? Which aural spaces emerge through an act of collective acoustic practice? Can we become recomposed through the spaces we listen in?

With the historical Concertgebouw building as a starting point, participants will gain technical and theoretical insights, and work towards creating a collective spatial composition to be showcased at the Amsterdam Concertgebouw during Aural Spaces. The workshop progresses over a two-day core programme at Contact Broedplaats, one brief introductory online session, and one final presentation to a live audience at the Recital Hall of Het Concertgebouw.

Dates and locations:

Nov 14th | 19 - 21 hrs | Online
Nov 22 | 9 - 19 hrs | Contact Broedplaats
